Oh Lolli-Lolli-Lolli
by Elouise
Can’t get it out of my mind. Thank you WordPress for this delectable word of the day: Lollipop!
No, I wasn’t allowed to listen to it at home, or dance and romance to it, but I loved it. It was alive, incredibly fun to sing and cheeky in days when cheeky wasn’t on The Good Girl’s List of Acceptable Behaviors.
Here it is, in its original glory, performed by the Chordettes. One of their glorious hits from the 1940s and 50s, recorded and filmed in the good old days. Their biggest hit was Mr. Sandman.
Don’t blame me if you can’t get it out of your mind….

Funny. I used the same clip in my response to this prompt. My story, though, built loosely around this song, was, shall we say, a little different.

Okay. Who is that guy that does the pop that we see once in a while? David and I both thought at first it was Andy Williams, but I’m not sure!

I wish I knew for sure, but David F. thinks it’s Andy Williams. I’d say it’s in his eyes and his “innocent” good-guy face. 😊
